Till We Meet Again

Chapter 11

[play the music]

You can't really tell when will you will die, can't you? You can't tell if later, tomorrow, or even today will be your death. None of us know. It..It just happened.

Namjoon finally covered Prince Jimin's body using a white cloth. All of us are crying and sad about what happened today. You can hear the rain outside and you can see the dark atmosphere around here. I wiped my tears and looked at the Princess. She is emotionless. She is still embracing the strong and cold princess that she is. I am amazed that she keeps on doing that despite of having a incident like this.

On the other side, I saw the servants with Jeongyeon while Jeongyeon still carries her baby as she cries. All of us were all sad about this.

Suddenly, Namjoon's four men went inside the gate of the Kingdom while carrying a body covered with a white cloth on their shoulders. They put down the body in front of us on the ground.

The General began to speak, "It's Prince Aries." All of us gasped when we heard her. "The half of his face were burnt. The only signs that we can confirm that it was him is because of his armored and his mole on his left ear."  I saw the General with Prince Chanyeol. You can see their sadness in their faces even the dead bodies in front of them were their enemies in this competition.

"Today... we are now looking at the two dead bodies in front of us. Prince Jimin and Prince Aries.  Today, as we mourn them, let's not forget what actual happened. Someone attacked the Kingdom of Gemini.. We still don't know who could it be and what's their motive. Could it be the Kingdom of Jug-Eum—our one and only enemy? Or could it be one of us here inside the kingdom? Is it possible that the one who burned the Kingdom of Gemini is the one who killed Prince Jimin? Could be anyone of us is the man wearing a black cloth as his face were covered? We still don't know..." she paused. "But there's only one thing for sure... I will investigate this case, and I will postponed the challenge for now. If I found out who it is, I will kill him in front of you!"

This is the first time that I heard and saw the princess being angry about what happened. Her words were stuck inside our heads and we will never forget her promise to all of us.

The Kingdom of Jug-Eum? What is that Kingdom? And why is that kingdom named 'death'?

"I believed it's not the kingdom of Jug-Eum," We all looked at Prince Chanyeol who straightly said it. "I think it's one of us here..." he smirked "And it is you!" he pointed out the Princess.

Our eyes widened and we all gasped from his statement. Why is he accusing the princess?

"How dare you—"

"I should've just believed Prince Aries that it was you all along!" he screamed. "You want this woman to won the competition and not any one of us. You're a cheater. You onced threatened Prince Aries in front of us when he was ready to go home. Am I right?" The princess just glared at him. "And what are you going to do next? Kill me? Let me suffer?!"

"Calm down Prince Chanyeol... You have no rights to yell at the Princess!" The General exclaimed

"I will never calm down. And I will never ever fight for you. You are worthless, cheater and a bad princess! If Prince Aries doesn't deserve to be the King, then so are you. You don't deserve to be the Queen!" He yelled and walked away.

"Your highness, it's in the law that whoever calls you names will suffer—" Namjoon stopped talking when the Princess raised her left hand.

"Let him be." She said. "Do what you have to do. And we will start investigating about what really happened here. No one will come out of this kingdom. Close all the gates and guard this Kingdom properly." she ordered Namjoon, he nodded and goes out of the Kingdom. "General, let Namjoon do your job as of now. I would like you to come with me inside." She said before walking away.
